Bootcamp XP + Wireless Keyboard Problem

macrumors newbie

I have an iMac with Due Core 2, 2.16GHz with leopard. After installing bootcamp and running windows XP, everything seemed to be fine until the next time I ran windows. The wireless Apple Keyboard would not work. I tried deleting it from the bluetooth menu then re-adding it on numerous occasions but it doesn't work.

I have been having this problem for about a week since I've installed Vista through bootcamo in Leopard. BUT this evening while on Vista I noticed there were 4 Vista software updates which I downloaded and installed. After I decided to try and install my Apple wireless keyboard again and for a minute it actually worked. Unfortunately it then stopped working and I couldn't pair it again. I then booted into OS X and strangely it lost it's pairing in Leopard also! Of course I was able to pair it in OS X but I'm going to try again in Vista later to see if I can get it working again. I'm tired of having two keyboards on my desk!

I called the Apple help line before (in Australia), and they said they had no knowledge of this issue, and that it is a Windows Problem. They have told me to call Microsoft, but personally I do not want to as they are no help.
